GBVSR 2.60 Drops Id and a Switch 2 Port on September 17

Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising will launch its Version 2.60 update and a Nintendo Switch 2 port on September 17, 2026, adding the Relink crossover fighter Id, the Einsted Archipelago stage, and new universal systems that apply to the entire roster.

Id arrives as downloadable content drawn directly from Granblue Fantasy: Relink, accompanied by the Einsted Archipelago stage and giving competitors a fresh environment tied to the same source material. Beyond the new character, Version 2.60 expands universal system mechanics for all fighters and ships a full suite of balance adjustments. These changes will immediately reshape matchups and ladder strategy on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC, forcing competitors to relearn punishment timing, combo extensions, and defensive options across the cast.

The Nintendo Switch 2 version launches the same day as the 2.60 update, giving new players access to the existing DLC roster from day one. That makes September 17 a dual milestone: a content reset for veterans and a complete entry point for Switch 2 competitors. Cross-platform matchmaking stability, local wireless tournament viability, and how DLC entitlements carry over remain the practical questions that will decide whether the portable build becomes a standard fixture at locals or a siloed version of the game.

Watch for final patch notes detailing the exact universal system changes, balance adjustments, and Switch 2 feature parity before launch; those specifics will determine how tournament organizers integrate the new platform into the competitive calendar and whether the Switch 2 build can support serious offline and online bracket play.
